Zomedica to Build Direct Sales Force for TRUFORMA® Platform
15 Avril 2021 - 12:01PM
Zomedica Corp. (NYSE American: ZOM) (“Zomedica” or the
“Company”), a veterinary health company creating point-of-care
diagnostics products for dogs and cats, announced that it intends
to expand its direct sales organization while phasing out its
distributor-based sales efforts.
Robert Cohen, Chief Executive Officer of
Zomedica, commented: “As TRUFORMA®’s market presence grew, we
intended to transition from a distributor-based sales model to a
direct sales organization. However, due to anticipated changes at
our current distributor that we believe have impacted its ability
to market our products effectively, we will be accelerating that
transition and the building of a direct sales organization. While
this effort may slow initial sales of TRUFORMA®, we have taken this
action now to avoid any disruption to our customers and to provide
a stronger foundation on which to build the marketing and sales of
both TRUFORMA® and any future products developed or acquired by
Zomedica.”
Zomedica currently employs eight direct field
sales personnel, supported by two regional managers, a Vice
President of Sales, and a Chief Commercial Officer. Brük Herbst,
Chief Commercial Officer of Zomedica, commented: “During my time as
Head of Sales & Marketing at IDEXX, I saw the value and impact
of a direct sales organization. A direct sales force will
significantly improve our ability to serve our customers and to
sell our products in the veterinary market in the longer term. We
are fortunate that we have the financial strength at Zomedica to
make this transition, and look forward to building a quality sales
force to match the excellent quality of TRUFORMA®.”
